In Case You Didn’t Know…

Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool outfit are in the hunt for the club’s first Premier League title in the past 29 years, and are pushing rivals Manchester City right until the end of the season.

The Reds are also in the semi-finals of the Champions League and working extremely well as a unit, but one player who has been crucial towards Liverpool’s success going unnoticed is Belgian keeper Simon Mignolet.

The Heart Of The Matter

Mignolet has had his game time reduce drastically ever since Liverpool signed Alisson Becker in the last summer transfer window from AS Roma. The 31-year-old has started just two games this season in both the domestic Cup competitions, but has still had a major impact on the rest of the Liverpool squad.

According to veteran English midfielder James Milner, Mignolet is the man who has gone unnoticed in this season’s incredible run despite not playing as much as he would have liked.

The 33-year-old Milner had only praise for Mignolet as he spoke to the official club website and said the shot-stopper has the best attitude at the club:

Milner went on to explain how Mignolet’s presence in training and in the dressing room has an uplifting impact of the rest of the squad:

What’s Next?

Liverpool will be hoping that they end this season with at least one title, either the Premier League or the Champions League, as it could be Milner’s last season for the club. Either way, the Merseyside giants will need all of the encouragement they need, including the presence of Simon Mignolet from the touchline.
